MAC / CS3 / DVCPRO-HD color shifting
by CharlieX on Oct 29, 2007 at 10:58:03 pm

I'm new to DVCPRO-HD footage. Noticed a problem that's eluding me:

75% color bars, DVCPRO-HD 720/24fps from FCP as a self-contained quicktime. Import into AE. Make a sequence from the bars. Render back to DVCPRO-HD. Import into FCP. There's a gamma shift + a desaturation + a color shift of several degrees clockwise on the vectorscope! Way beyond the old gamma shift in quicktime problem.

Render as Animation codec = same problem but the desaturation and color shift are different! ARGH!

I've worked in "no color management" and "709" colorspace. 8bit, 16bit. To no avail. It almost feels like AE is reading a completely wrong colorspace on the footage and translating it... when it doesn't have to. DVCPRO-HD is 709. end of story.

Combustion and Shake both render fine in the exact same test.

NTSC bars/tests are fine. everything locks in.

HELP?!?! I'm totally miffed.

AE 8.0.1.8
FCP 6.0.1
QT 7.2.0
OS 10.4.10
